Ten potato cultivars were tested for susceptibility to infection by Erwinia carotovora subsp atroseptica (Eca) the causal agent of blackleg over two maincrop seasons in 200506 and 200607 The pathogen was inoculated into seed tubers using toothpicks charged with undiluted bacterial growth Blackleg incidence was assessed 56 weeks after planting The field experiments clearly confirmed that potato cultivars vary significantly in susceptibility to blackleg Some New Zealand cultivars had a lower susceptibility to blackleg than current commercial cultivars The new Plant Food Research release Summer Delight in particular had an exceptional level of resistance and will be used as a parent in efforts to develop potato cultivars with lower blackleg susceptibility than current local commercial cultivars Routine screening of Plant Food Research breeding lines and cultivars will continue to be carried out over several seasons to confirm results presented here and to determine further blacklegresistant germplasm

The Impact

<p>Tertiary education, once a purely domestic affair, has become an increasingly globalised industry over previous decades. Whilst the international sector has grown to being New Zealand's fourth largest export market (Ministry of Education, 2016), there is a lack of credible research on the demand of international students.    This thesis aims to provide a greater understanding of the determinants of international student demand, both in New Zealand and internationally. I firstly provide a descriptive analysis of the trends in the international student market for New Zealand and 27 OECD countries. Secondly, I use a fixed-effects approach to analyse the demand of international students within New Zealand, using fees data at the course-by-university level. Thirdly, I then generalise this approach to the international market to provide an analysis of the demand for international students travelling to the OECD.    The findings from these analyses imply that the demand for international university education is relatively inelastic. The impact of a marginal increase in fees decreases the number of EFTS/students at a proportion of less than one. Furthermore, this effect is generally not statistically distinguishable from zero.</p>

9047 Background: Over the past two decades, rapid advances have occurred in both the successful treatment of childhood cancers and reproductive medicine. We sought to establish the current level of clinical practice for sperm, oocyte and gonadal tissue collection and storage in children newly diagnosed with cancer in Australia and New Zealand (ANZ). Methods: A cross-sectional survey of all pediatric oncology services in ANZ was performed. Comparisons to recently published North American practices and to current recommendations for best practice were also made. Results: Of the 13 centers invited to participate, 12 (92%) completed the survey. All centers had offered sperm conservation, but only ten (83%) had offered oocyte/ovarian tissue conservation. Available methods of gamete collection and storage were not consistent. Two centers were using GnRH agonists as fertility protection in post-pubertal females. Forty-two per cent had offered fertility conservation to males and females prior to completion of sexual development. All centers were more likely to offer sperm conservation than oocyte conservation for any given disease. The most common diseases for which conservation was offered were lymphomas and sarcomas. The anticipated cumulative dose at which centers elected to offer fertility preservation varied widely, both for the alkylator cyclophosphamide (1g/m2 to 10g/m2) and for abdominal/pelvic irradiation (any to 12 Gy) and spinal irradiation (any to 18Gy). Fertility counseling was offered in a variety of settings by 82% of centers. Despite 92% of centers agreeing that fertility preservation guidelines would be helpful, only two (17%) had any in place. Overall, there was greater uptake and consistency of utilization of fertility services in ANZ when compared with published North American data. Conclusions: There are inconsistencies regarding the indications for and methods of gamete conservation in pediatric oncology centers throughout ANZ. Unresolved medical, legal and ethical issues suggest the development of guidelines and a voluntary code of practice would be helpful. No significant financial relationships to disclose.
